What are the section responsibilities after the permit is issued?
The Pollution Control Section is responsible for protecting Shelby County’s air quality. Requiring a source (or a business) to obtain a Stage I Vapor Recovery gasoline dispensing facility operating permit ensures compliance with the established rules, thereby decreasing the impact on nearby residents and maintaining overall air quality.

The section has the right to conduct routine inspections as deemed necessary. The section may suspend or revoke any facility permit if the permit-holder fails to comply with the provisions, stipulations, or compliance schedules specified in the permit. The Memphis Shelby County Air Code provides for civil penalties of up to $25,000 per day for each day of violation.
